The English/Irish potato connection always gives me a laugh. Had My grandmother lived long enough to have met my wife she would have loved the fact people call them potatoes even though they take it as a major insult. From what I understand It's along the same lines as tossing out the N word.
If that is the case, I apologize.
I have had plenty of British and Irish friends that use the terms on one another and never heard of them being offensive.
I suppose the same thing actually happens with the N word, within certain groups.
I'll have to grill them about the topic.
